Blink-182 Embrace Separation Anxiety With ‘I Really Wish I Hated You’

Breakups can be hard, but Blink-182 have captured the complicated emotions that come with a split in their latest new song, "I Really Wish I Hated You."

The track comes from the viewpoint of a person who's having a rather difficult time with their recent separation, still feeling those pangs of longing for their recent partner and struggling to reclaim their identity. The lyrics for the track can be viewed below, and a lyric video for the song can be found at the bottom of this post.

I don’t really like myself without youEvery song I sing is still about youSave me from myself the wayyou used toBecause I don’t really like myself without youI really wish I hated youA little drunk, waiting on your phone callA little numb, maybe I can’t feel at allYou stitch me up but you can’t stop me bleeding outI’m better when I’m brokenI love you but I hate you when you’re with someone elseAnd I want you wrapped around me but I don’t trust myselfI drove by your house but you don’t live there anymoreWon’t you say something, won’t you say something?I really wish I hated youThe sun is outI’mdying in the daytimeI think about the future that we left behindI drank it all but I can’t shake you from my mindNow every window’s brokenI can see that you’ve had enoughI can see that you’re giving up on meI can see that your hands are upI can seethat you’re giving up on meI hate the way that you’re better off, better offI numb the pain but it never stops, never stopsWish I could say that I’m better off, better off now
